Literally translated yes.
But Donnerwetter is rather a expression of total astonishment. 
"DONNERWETTER !"

Foe was going to write a second one, but things got in the way...
End of term at uni is a bit stressful time.
I have tried to do a patrol, but fell victim to an unknown to me WAC 3.0 bug... Basically, got bounced by a plane in time compression while shadowing a convoy on the surface, took some damage and flooding in electric engine room.
The crew have fixed the leak in a day or so, but the water just wouldn't get pumped out... Additionally, WAC has made it so that a tiny amount of water drags the boat down like several tons of weight, and the boat is unable to hold any depth except at ahead full... Won't make much use while hunted by escorts.
Too bad, the convoy had three cruise liners and a cruiser 
I'm sure the community will forgive me if we... umm.... skip that patrol like nothing happened

Ok Foe .. now you have to explain where you got that name from </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I have once made fun of a telemarketer by making him repeat himself over and over, and finally signing up for some offer with a made up address, and a name Kurt Donnerwettermann.. spoken with my best German accent, of course 
Then I remembered that when I tried to come up with a random German name
